Pyrography Greenman Leather Bullet Journal Cover

Adding Red Colored Pencil:

You want even, but light coverage. You can always add more colored pencil work to intensify an area as the overall coloring develops.

Working with Cadmium Yellow Colored Pencil:

Working the Leaves with Olive Green:

Add several light coats of olive-green the to face of your Greenman.

Adding Red to the Eyes and Mouth:

During this step I added several more coats of medium red to the leaves where they touch the face or are tucked deeply behind other leaves.
